Jeremy Clarkson, host of the hit BBC TV series Top Gear, provides the voiceover.

Twofifteenmccann partnered with production company MJZ and acclaimed director Nicolai Fuglsig on the project which was shot on location in Uruguay. The "An Endangered Species" trailer debuted on Monday October 3 on TopGear.com and will be seen on Xbox.com and other digital properties as well.

Fast football currently dominates the beautiful game with the likes of Lionel Messi, Ashley Young, and David Silva controlling matches across the world. Now, with the launch of the groundbreaking adidas F50 powered by miCoach, adidas is giving UK footballers the chance to prove they’re fast too with their ‘The Hunt For Fast’ campaign.

adidas is scouring the nation for the fastest 11 amateur footballers in the land. After playing in a match or training session wearing a new pair of f50 boots powered by miCoach, you’ll be able to view your performance data including: average speed, top speed, distance covered and more. Then, you can upload the stats directly onto miCoach and compare them to other players across the country. The players who with fastest times each week will be rewarded with a place in the fastest team ever assembled.

The adizero F50 miCoach players who make it into the team will be given ultimate recognition for their efforts with personal advertisements appearing in press, online or pitch side hoardings at football matches across the country. Additionally, select winners will get the chance to put their speed to the ultimate test by meeting and competing against some of the fastest professional players in the premier league.

Thanks to the miCoach chip in the boot, players are able to track their performance as the devise measures 360 degree movement, the number of sprints, and distance covered in the game.
The chip wirelessly connects to your smart phone, iPad, PC or Mac and uploads your statistics which you can then share via social media channels.

Dad,

Technology has made us feel closer and closer.
Communicating is easier and faster everyday.
But still, there are and there will always be moments when men and women will have to meet face to face.

Wind has chosen a story, a short film by Giuseppe Capotondi, that with grace and poetry reminds us how important it is to feel close to someone, bypassing a technology that is becoming more and more pervasive in our lives and in our affections.

If you are thinking about truly getting in touch with someone really important, watch this short piece of cinema.

The movie Alma (in English, “Soul”) – made by Brazilian production company Sentimental Filme – has just won two awards at the prestigious D&AD competition, in London. This brings the tally of international prizes to 12 for this short film conceived by advertising agency F/Nazca Saatchi & Saatchi.

The first Leica brand campaign in Brazil, the film is part of the launch activities for the German camera maker’s unique concept store in the country – in São Paulo – and features the new M Monochrom digital camera designed to produce stunning photos in black and white.

Alma won for Best Direction and for Cinematography in the Film Advertising Crafts' category with accolades for Vellas and André Faccioli respectively. "The D&AD is possibly one of the hardest prizes to win. The level is very high and the festival showcases many films from all around the world made by influential production companies and filmed by top directors. Just being nominated for a D&AD was something incredible for us, but to win two golden pencils [the statues based on the British awards symbol] was really beyond our expectations and very gratifying. Really amazing", said the director Vellas. This year Brazilian productions bagged four of the coveted D&AD pencil trophies.

Between wars and loves, this is an engaging story of a photographer narrated from the unusual point of view of his own camera. In black and white, the movie sports unconventional angles and, sometimes, deliberately blurred images, as if the camera was held in the actual hand or slung round the neck of the photographer himself.

Hopes are now high that following the film’s success at D&AD Alma will be in the running at the prestigious Cannes Lions 2013, which take place from 16 to 22 June.

The production company...
In 11 years of creative activity, Sentimental Filme has become one of the most important advertising film producers from Brazil. Winner of several national and international awards, including a Bronze Lion at Cannes, three Clio Awards, and two One Show prizes, the company also has a division that produces content for TV, internet, entertainment, interactive advertising, corporate communications and new media. Its major clients include Fiat, Ford, Panasonic, Volkswagen, Visa, Procter & Gamble and AB Imbev.

18 Feet & Rising’s new advertising for the National Trust focuses on its role looking after and championing the special places that the world loves by encouraging the public to share their love for those places which hold a special place in their hearts.

The print campaign, will run across press, OOH, and digital, shows the iconic National Trust oak leaf as a symbol of love — an alternative to the heart in the vein of the popular 'I heart NY' imagery. Each execution is a statement of an individual's love of a place, whether it's an 11 year-old catching butterflies at Wicken Fen or a 14 year-old getting to the top of a hill before his dad at Stourhead. Each story is authentic, with no models or fake names, and a social element invites the public to get involved, along with celebrities, volunteers and staff.
The campaign aims to steer public perception away from National Trust locations as being a 'look but don't touch' visitor experience, and instead show that these are places for creating hands-on memories.
